I've set my dad as having a yDNA test; why does that not appear on his father's profile?

My gedcom import is finally done, and I'm spiffing up my immediate family profiles. I've linked my dad to the yDNA test that he's done, and the "genetic ancestry" page correctly shows where he got that yDNA.

But the paragraph about testing on his father's profile says that nobody has been tested. This seems like a bug.

Father's profile: http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Cowan-1506

His father's profile: http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Cowan-1516

Shouldn't those results be reported all the way up the male line?

Hi Valorie, Welcome to WikiTree! DNA test information is only updated once every 24 hours. It should be reported up the male line some time tomorrow.

Thanks Kay, you were right. Today it appears correctly.

Hi Valorie,

You're right that there may be a bug. There are some other reports about yDNA tests not fully populating up and down the lines. We'll investigate ...
